Fat Golden Chicken Vs Small Quail
an impromptu metaphor adr used while we were discussing my job offers. there's no reason for a wait. anyone would have chosen the fat golden chicken! as the prospects of laying nice golden eggs in due time is rather promising. and of cos, if i set my eyes on the small quail, i may not run far.

i wonder what's stopping me really, to take up the fat golden chicken offer. it promises a fat pay cheque, attractive perks, fast career advancement and valuable job experience and opportunities. so what's the big inertia?

stepping into the unknown. new challenges. i suppose i've been in the cozy perimeters of comfortability for too long. i've been gripping too tightly to this current familiar job scopes, good bosses and favourable environment. breaking off from the nice turtle shell seems to be the hardest thing to do.

perhaps at some point of time in everyone's life that we need to sit down and make big decisions that would steer our life's direction. when we do have to make such choices, there may be anxieties about the 'what ifs'. and maybe, what it takes is just a big step of faith and a willing spirit to accept whatever that may come our way. if we constantly worry about what is to come, then we would never take another leap. we should just grow, develop and jump out of our comfort zones eh?

at this time. you would have guessed. i've decided to take up the fat golden chicken's offer :)
